USM Minority Achievement Committee

The Minority Achievement Committee was initially responsible for preparing
the proposed USM MINORITY ACHIEVEMENT PLAN 2001-2010. In 2001 The USM Board
of Regents adopted the USM Systemwide Plan for Minority Achievement. The
Academic Affairs Advisory Council (AAAC) charged the Minority Achievement
Committee (MAC) as a standing committee to coordinate efforts embodied in
that Plan. Campuses are given assistance in generating periodic
institutional reports that not only measure progress, but also allow for
mid-course corrections as best practices become apparent. AAAC appoints
designees to MAC to coordinate campus reporting and implementation. As
annual reports are reviewed, the Minority Achievement Committee suggests
where corrective action should be taken and acknowledges where successful
activities are underway.
